Hub-to-hub I would expect a higher level of F-qualified upgraders. I've never seen a list quite this long however.

Makes me feel REALLY special. . . .


That beat my recent Monday ORD-SFO which only had 91 people on the upgrade list. I was #18 as a 1K using an RPU. At least 25 people boarded when GS was called and then I lost count in the crowd. It was nuts.
